How Can I Use The Transaction Import API?


The data import API allows you to create (or update) sales transactions within Sales Cookie using HTTP requests.

Three options are available to import sales transactions using an API:
  • Use the CSV Upload API (easiest)
    • Manually upload a sample CSV file containing sales transactions
    • Upload more sales transactions as CSV in one HTTP call 
    • See the documentation here
  • Use the Full REST API (advanced)
    • Define your own fields, and how they map to system categories (ex: revenue, profit)
    • Upload many sales transactions in one HTTP call
    • See the documentation here
  • Use the Simplified REST API (intermediate)
    • No need to define your own fields or map them 
    • Create one sales transaction per HTTP call
    • See the documentation here

There are more options available as well - for example you can leverage Zapier, or have us pull transaction data from a web page.
